The effects of commercial glyphosate herbicide formulation on the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme and oxidative stress were studied in Cyprinus carpio exposed for 96 h to 0.0, 0.5, 2.5, 5.0 and 10.0 mg/L and then allowed to equal recovery period in water without herbicide. The activity of AChE was inhibited in the brain and in the muscle after exposure. However, after recovery period brain and muscle AChE activity increased. Brain thiobarbituric acid reactive species (TBARS) were measured as an indicator of oxidative stress. Increased TBARS levels were observed with all concentrations tested of the glyphosate formulation, and remained increased after the recovery period. The results recorded clearly indicate lipid peroxidation and anti-AChE action induced by Roundup(®) exposure.

Brucellosis has therapeutic challenges due to 3%-15% relapses/therapeutic failures (R/TF) after antibiotic treatment. Therefore, determining the antibiotic concentration in tissues, the physiopathological parameters, and the R/TF after treatment is relevant. After exploring different antibiotic quantities, we found that a combined dose of 100 µg/g of doxycycline (for 45 days) and 7.

Background: Achilles tendon rupture is a common orthopedic injury, with an annual incidence of 11-37 per 100000 people, significantly impacting daily life. Minimally invasive surgery, increasingly favored for its reduced risks and comparable fixation strength to open surgery, addresses these challenges. Despite advantages like accelerated recovery, perioperative care poses emotional support, pain management, and rehabilitation challenges, impacting treatment efficacy and patient experience.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy associated with high mortality. Surgical care is an effective colorectal cancer management technique, and it is therefore crucial that a review of the determinants of patients' long-term outcomes after CRC surgery is conducted. This article aims to provide healthcare professionals and policymakers with insights into the determinants of long-term outcomes following CRC surgery while acknowledging the interconnected impact of the early recovery and post-operative periods.
